Bitlocker implementation on Hyper-V host with guest VM

$

Hi,

        I've been drilling forums for a few days and can't really find the answer I am looking for. In a nutshell, I need to implement BitLocker on a few Hyper-V hosts that all have Guest VM's currently in production. One host OS is Server 2008 Enterprise, and the other two are Server 2008R2 Enterprise.

        I need to encrypt the OS volumes, Data Volumes, and USB 3 backup drives. One response in a forum just said for it. Yeah, not so much!

        I know how to install the feature, but my questions are

1. What is the impact of installing BitLocker after having guest VM's already configured and running?

2. What if I need to move a VM to another host? One response I found said that if I do that, the VHD files will become unprotected.....really???

3. If I need to do a bare metal restore, can I unlock the USB backup drive on another host?
